Dimapur, July 31 (EMN): The Naga National Council (NNC) ‘parent body’ in an emergency meeting of the Central Executive Council (CEC), and regional authorities on July 30 in Dimapur, unanimously resolved to suspend general secretary, V Nagi, indefinitely for breach of NNC Yehzabo.
This was informed in a press release issued to media on Tuesday by NNC ‘parent body’ media cell.
Nagi has been suspended for ‘utilizing local media, brazenly insulted and dishonored the office of the NNC president in particular and NNC as a national political institution of the Nagas.’ His tirade against president Z Royim Yimchunger breached the NNC principle and hurt the sentiments of all committed national workers, the communiqué stated.
“Abusing the power and authority bestowed upon him by the national workers through the Yehzabo, Mr. V Naga issued media statements mentioning names and lifting signatures of co-workers many of whom were not informed. Thus, the safety and security of many national workers were put at risk,” the press release stated.
When the official letter reporting the “childish” and “reckless” behaviour of Nagi reached the office of the president, the NCC ‘parent body’ said a prompt request was made to other Naga leaders pleading for him to continue as co-convener in the Indo-Naga dialogue. “Although he departed for New Delhi yet he remained hidden from other Naga leaders and did not join the Naga delegation in the dialogue,” it stated.
Going against the president's order, the NCC said that Nagi continued to claim the co-convenership of the working committee (WC) of NNPGs when Toshi Walling had replaced him in the WC as co-convener endorsed by the central executive meeting on May 6 2018.
“WC, NNPGs, and GoI have understood the core issues and significant steps have been taken without compromising our basic historical rights. Mr.VNagi has pointed an accusatory finger at all Naga leaders presently in Delhi. In the process, he has failed to inspire us as a leader. He has fallen short of our expectations. Therefore, by the power and authority of the National Yehzabo of NNC, the president, in consultation with the Central Executive Council members, Mr. V Nagi, General Secretary has suspended indefinitely on 30th July 2018,” the press release stated.
All rank and file of NNC ‘parent body’ has expressed confident that Nagi will “introspect on his personality traits, cultivate a positive outlook, create space for love understanding, acceptance and comradeship in his heart thereby re-establish himself as a leader of men.”
Meanwhile, it has informed that Toshi Walling, CEC member shall continue to represent NNC ‘parent body’ as co-convener and assist WC, NNPGs in the ongoing political dialogue with the GOI.
